How it feels
A short, tense walking simulator where you explore a quiet Japanese town at night with a creeping sense of dread.

What players say
Players see this as Yamoto's earliest and weakest game, a short walking simulator that takes under 30 minutes to see both endings. Praise goes to the Japanese small-town atmosphere, but many find the story confusing and the character too calm to build tension.
